Set Course for Arcturus!

.

I spent the day working on the novel and got three pages done -- not bad for me. In fact, since I still have to go to China to research the novel, it's amazing I'm as far into as I am. So I don't have a lot to report, other than that the mail came today.

But what good mail! I got my contributor's copy of StarShipSofa Tales Volume 3 -- and a very odd enterprise it is too. I contributed "Cold Reading" to it, and this is probably going to be its only appearance in physical print. (It was originally published online.) Here's the table of contents:

Joy of The Flicks by Dennis M. Lane
Top Ten “Must Read” Time Travel Works by Amy H. Sturgis
Comics: what have they done for Us lately? by Frederic Himebaugh
Science Fiction Through The Looking Glass: the Ape, the Alien and the Android by Morgan Saletta (Illustrated by Timothy Booth)

The book also has a page for each of the contributors showing ourselves and our offices, along with something odd and extra. In my case, it's my autobiography, which consists of two words, one repeated many times and the other not.

And in the same mail . . .

I also got a box of trade paperbacks of Dancing With Bears from Night Shade Books. So It's now in softcover, priced at a quite reasonable $14.99 American.
